Chapter 125

Wu Wu Wu Youjue was also a bit surprised.

But thinking about it carefully.

Several months ago, when Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun promoted him to Viscount for the first time, he had the intention of promoting him to Earl.

So this promotion to Earl is understandable.

Not to mention Jia Hui's original merits.

Being made an Earl or adding to an Earl was not a problem.

After all, he discovered a major treason case!

Stopped a huge crisis that might have been a coup against the Emperor!

Being made an Earl is not excessive at all!

If it weren't for Jia Hui being promoted to a third-rank official yesterday.

It is very likely that he would have to be promoted to another official position.

Or promoted.

However, the positions were basically occupied by others.

It was not good to move lightly.

Otherwise, if there was a vacancy, or if others were arranged to move positions.

Then the promotion would be much smoother.

Without too much bickering.

However, this promotion was sudden.

I'm afraid there will be many voices in the court tomorrow.

With the Retired Emperor's attention, it's not impossible to have twists and turns!

Regardless.

For now.

It is definitely a great thing for Jia Hui.

Although titles today don't have their own fiefs Love Love Like a thousand years ago.

Only a salary and a little money to receive.

However, the huge social status and identity improvement are still very powerful!

For example, when encountering officials of the same rank.

The situation of doing things is naturally led by the person with the higher title.

In short, the benefits are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Jia Hui himself was a bit surprised.

And of course, he was happy.

As for being grateful to the Emperor?

It doesn't exist.

This is the result of my efforts, why should I be grateful!

It's Love Love Like a boss and a wage earner.

I worked for you and saved you from being kicked off the stage, or even being murdered by your subordinates.

It is only right for you to reward me.

Jia Hui felt at ease.

Just thinking about it.

The man finished reading an imperial decree.

Dismounted and handed the imperial decree to Jia Hui.

He said to Jia Hui and the others: "Don't worry, there is another imperial decree."

Jia Hui and the others continued to listen patiently.

The man took out a new imperial decree.

Continued to read.

"..."

Imperial decrees are generally divided into three types: Edicts, Systems, and Decrees.

An Edict is issued to the world, and the Di Bao is sent to all local places, so that the common people know about it.

This one is still an Edict.

The content of the imperial decree translated into plain language is.

Order Jia Hui to join the Marquis of Marquis Marquis Yongping, Xu Xu Xu Lingyi.

To investigate the City Guard theft case and the treason case together!

And the Inner Guard and the Imperial City Guard are all involved in the investigation!

And bestow the Shangfang Sword to Jia Hui!

That is, the Emperor's imperial sword.

Officials holding the Shangfang Sword have the power to represent imperial power, such as executing first and reporting later!

Seeing the sword is Love Love Like seeing the Son of Heaven!

"Peerless Earl, please receive the sword!"

Jia Hui heard this and took the sword with both hands to look at it. "

The sword body has fine patterns chiseled, and the patterns are clear!

One side of the sword body is engraved with a soaring dragon, and the other side is engraved with a spreading phoenix, and the sword body is also decorated with the Big Dipper, in the shape of the sword responding to celestial phenomena.

Jia Hui estimated that it was based on the worship of the Big Dipper, and also to commemorate the achievements of the sword-casting ancestor Ou Yezi.

Holding the Shangfang Sword tightly, Jia Hui immediately felt the deliciousness of huge power!

He noticed Liu Fang at the door looking at Jia Hui in horror!

Jia Hui didn't rush to deal with Liu Fang.

First looked at this person who read the imperial decree: "Who is this honorable guest?"

"I am Gu Gu Gu Qianfan, Deputy Commander of the Imperial City Guard Investigation Division!"

Gu Gu Gu Qianfan bowed slightly and clasped his fists!

Gu Gu Gu Qianfan!

Imperial City Guard!

Hearing this name!

And this unit!

Jia Hui raised his eyebrows slightly.

The male lead of "A Dream of Splendor"!

In memory.

This person has skills, looks, and wisdom. As the son of a powerful official, he could have enjoyed the shade of his father's generation, but he fought his way out on his own. He is ruthless to himself, strict with his subordinates, "One main official, one whip, don't be perfunctory, don't be greedy for life." His selfless and vigorous style of conduct earned him the name "Living Yama" among the people.

He met Zhao Zhao Zhao Paner in the investigation of the prophecy case in Qiantang.

As for mobilizing the Imperial City Guard.

Jia Hui was not surprised.

It is similar to the Embroidered Uniform Guard, belonging to the Emperor's private intelligence and assassination organization. Officials, soldiers, and personal attendants are the confidants and claws of the Son of Heaven, and their treatment has always been generous.

Because the Embroidered Uniform Guard is firmly held in the hands of the Retired Emperor.

Therefore, the Imperial City Guard is more valued in the reign of Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun.

The most important duty is to investigate the situation in the army and prevent conspiracies and disturbances.

However, the reputation of the Imperial City Guard is not good.

Because the Imperial City Guard avoids the hostility of court officials.

It belongs to the type of low status and heavy power.

Gu Gu Gu Qianfan belongs to the military officials, and is a deputy, holding the position of a regular eighth-rank official, with the military rank of Deputy Lieutenant of the Xuanjie.

In front of Jia Hui, he is completely a sesame-sized official.

But the other party is the Emperor's eyes and ears, so Jia Hui will not underestimate the other party.

However, Gu Gu Gu Qianfan passed the imperial examination at the age of 18, and he has been an official for 12 years, and he is only a regular eighth-rank official.

Jia Hui shook his head for him.

If it were him, he wouldn't be stupid enough to do this job.

Although powerful.

But the status is low.

In addition, he will also be severely hostile by court officials!

From now on, there is basically no possibility of major promotion.

No wonder he is only an eighth-rank official after twelve years.

However, Jia Hui admires such people.

No wonder Zhao Zhao Zhao Paner regarded him as a hero in the original play!

"Now that I'm here, Zhao Zhao Zhao Paner is mine, I'm really sorry, we are rivals in love."

Shaking his head.

Now is not the time to think about these things.

Jia Hui didn't say much to Gu Gu Gu Qianfan.

Instead, he turned his gaze to the other male lead: "Marquis of Marquis Marquis Yongping, what do you think?"

Everyone immediately followed and looked at the Marquis of Marquis Marquis Yongping!.

[133] Forcing Liu Fang to retreat, the Retired Emperor's confidants arrived!

Smart people know.

This is a struggle for power.

The imperial decree says.

Jia Hui and Xu Xu Xu Lingyi will investigate the case together!

But it didn't say who is the leader and who is the assistant.

"Peerless Earl, you discovered the case, you know the situation better than I do, so this case is led by you, and I will assist from the side."

Xu Xu Xu Lingyi didn't fight for power.

Jia Hui nodded with satisfaction.

This Xu Xu Xu Lingyi and Gu Gu Gu Qianfan are both good loyal ministers of the Emperor.

For him, they are good tools!

Good people.

Leading by himself, then his merit in handling the case is the greatest!

Jia Hui immediately looked at Liu Fang!

"Liu Fang!"

"You said before that I was just a Viscount."

"And there was no imperial decree."

"Now I am an Earl, and I have an imperial decree. Do you have anything else to say now?"

Looking at the other party, Jia Hui said playfully.

Left hand holding the scabbard!

Right hand grabbing the hilt!

Liu Fang immediately took a step back in horror.

The person holding the Shangfang Sword is the person the Emperor trusts the most, and has the privilege of executing first and reporting later.

But such execution first and reporting later must also be done according to the law, and cannot be done recklessly.

After all, after the execution is completed.

If there is no problem with the other party.

Then it will be your turn to have your head cut off!

But now Jia Hui has an imperial decree!

Then there is reason and evidence!

If he dares to block again!

He absolutely believes!

In the next instant, Jia Hui will use this sword to cut off his head!

Therefore.

No matter how unwilling he was, he had to grit his teeth and retreat!

Seeing this, his subordinates had to put down their things!

Liu Fang then saw Jia Hui's regretful expression!

This made him even more terrified and angry: "This bastard really wanted to take the opportunity to kill me!"

Afterwards, he didn't dare to block in the slightest.

Jia Hui said to Gu Gu Gu Qianfan: "Commander Gu, I'll trouble you to arrest and monitor Liu Fang and the others, remember not to let them escape."

Gu Gu Gu Qianfan: "Your subordinate obeys the decree!"

Liu Fang gritted his teeth, "Jia Hui, if you can't find criminal evidence, I will definitely impeach you to the Retired Emperor!"

Jia Hui hummed lightly.

Want evidence?

Arrange it immediately!

After Jia Hui and his group went in.

Not long after.

Another wave of people rushed over!

Liu Fang was overjoyed when he saw these people: "Eunuch Xia, Lord Gao, General General General Shenwu, Feng Feng Ziying, you guys finally arrived!"

The four leaders.

They were the Six Palaces Eunuch Xia Xia Xia Shouzhong, Dali Temple Minister Gao Sheng, General General Shenwu General Feng Tang, and Feng Tang's son Feng Feng Feng Ziying.

Except for Feng Feng Feng Ziying, these three are not simple!

First of all, Xia Xia Xia Shouzhong, his power and status are undoubtedly the highest!

He is the Six Palaces Eunuch, about 30 years old, not old, but powerful.

The position of Six Palaces Eunuch is equivalent to the Grand Manager of the Inner Palace.

Responsible for serving the Empress and Jia Jia Jia Yuanchun and other concubines.

So a series of large-scale activities such as Jia Jia Yuanchun's family visit, bestowing festival gifts, and offering sacrifices at Qingxu Temple were all managed by him.

However, his other more important identity is the Retired Emperor's confidant.

His status is no worse than Dai Quan, the manager of the Daming Palace beside Emperor Emperor Emperor Yongshun.

Dai Quan is a money-grubber.

What is especially worth pondering is that Eunuch Dai Quan called the Military Governor who asked for a Longjinwei for his son "Fatty Feng", and called the Ministry of Revenue official, that is, the number one person, "Old Zhao", a first-rank official equivalent to the Minister of Personnel, in Dai Quan's mouth it was just "Old Zhao". The position of Military Governor has gradually evolved into a virtual position since the Song Dynasty.

But Military Governor has always been a very honorable official title, and Eunuch Dai Quan also called him "Fatty Feng" directly, so intimate, it can be seen that the relationship with the upper-level officials of the imperial court is very close.

As for this fifth-rank official of Longjinwei, he didn't even need to trouble Dai Quan to handle it personally, just find a small eunuch to tell "Old Zhao" and it would be done. No wonder the Zhi commentary said "Strange talk, painting the tone of a eunuch."

And this Xia Xia Xia Shouzhong is the Emperor's person on the surface, but actually the Retired Emperor's person.

The power and status are naturally greater!

After the Jia family spent all their family fortune on the Grand View Garden, their economy plummeted. When they couldn't make ends meet, he sent people to the Jia family to blackmail them for money every three days.

Jia Jia Jia Lian could only sigh: "When will this worship end?"

It is worth mentioning.
